Denver Broncos TE Joel Dreessen (knee) will undergo knee surgery next week in hopes that he can play out the final year of his contract next season. The extent of the surgery is not known at this point.

The Denver Broncos may release TEs Jacob Tamme and Joel Dreessen this offseason in order to create some salary cap space. Tamme is scheduled to have a $3.5 million salary cap figure next season, while Dreessen is scheduled to have a cap figure of over $3 million.
